June Moon Alabama White Sauce Wings

I’ve had a few store-bought Alabama white sauces. And I’ve made a few variations from scratch. Needless to say, I’m a fan of the concept. June Moon Alabama white sauce wings are another example of two great things that were meant for each other: a creamy, mayonnaise-based sauce that is nice and tangy, and chicken wings. Oh and it does have a slight spiciness to it too. But not too much.

June Moon Alabama White Sauce Wings

The Perfect Balance

June Moon Alabama white sauce wings aren’t too mayonnaise-y. Or vinegary. Speaking from experience, there’s nothing more disappointing that getting all excited about wings only to have a sauce that is watery or too vinegary. Not a worry with this sauce. I found the balance to be perfectly finger-licking good.

This is also a great sauce for dipping pretzels.

Remember that if you have to refrigerate your open bottle of wing sauce to let it sit out on the counter for at least 30 minutes before using. You don’t want to ‘shock’ hot, just-cooked wings with a cold sauce.

Frank’s RedHot Garlic Buffalo Wing Sauce Wings

I want to personally thank everyone that had anything at all to do with Frank’s RedHot Garlic Buffalo wing sauce. From the ingredients, to the packaging, to getting it on my grocery store’s shelves, you’re all heroes! Ok, so maybe that’s a bit much, but I’m a huge garlic fan and oh boy does this sauce ever pack in the garlic flavor. All in a (of course) a fantastic traditional Buffalo sauce. I cannot get enough of this. There’s no lack of flavor (and a bit of heat) here.

Garlic. And Lots of It.

This is the part where I stress how much garlic flavor is in Frank’s RedHot Garlic Buffalo wing sauce. Or I was going to. But why? You’re here because you were looking for a garlic wing sauce. You didn’t Google ‘I want a lame, flavorless sauce’ to get here. Or at least I hope you didn’t! No, you’re here for the same reason as I am: to celebrate great garlic and Buffalo flavors on wings!

Also try some Frank’s RedHot Buffalo Ranch dry wings! They’re great too!

Duck Fat Chicken Wings using the Vortex

Chicken wings cooked on a charcoal grill (I love my trusty Weber grills!) using a Vortex are the best. Not only do you get great flavor and crunchy skin, you get a light (or heavy.. It’s up to you, you can control it!) smoky flavor. You can’t go wrong with them. But you can make them even better using duck fat spray. What a difference it makes, too. They are better tasting and crunchier. These duck fat chicken wings using the Vortex are the decadent wings that dreams are made of.

Duck Fat Chicken Wings using the Vortex

Duck Fat And The Vortex Made For Great Wings

The Vortex enables you to get super-hot temperatures on a charcoal grill. That heat not only cooks them perfectly, it gives them a crunchier skin. You just cannot beat duck fat chicken wings using the Vortex.

Adding duck fat spray not only helps with getting that fantastic crunchy it skin, it also adds a fantastic different flavor than if you’d used vegetable or olive oil instead. It makes a world of difference.

Instructions

  • Place the Vortex into the center of your grill and add in the charcoal. Open the bottom vents on your grill by 1/3.
  • Light a charcoal chimney full of charcoal. Alternatively you can fill your Vortex with charcoal and light them inside the unit.
  • Let the charcoal get fully ashed over then add to the Vortex.
  • If you want extra smoke flavor, place a small wood chunk or two over the center of the Vortex and let it ignite and smoke.
  • Place the wings into a large bowl. Spray lightly with the duck fat while tossing. Don't get them soaking wet, you're looking for a light coating. Think 'squirt squirt' and not 'fence painting'.
  • Add the chicken as shown in the picture above.
  • Close the grill and cook for 45 minutes. If you are using a large charcoal grill (22" or bigger) you might want to rotate the lid 90 degrees every 15 minutes. I haven't found this to be necessary on smaller (18" and 14") grills.
  • Transfer wings to a bowl and toss with your favorite seasoning and sauce as desired.

Notes

If you’re saucing your wings with a refrigerated sauce, make sure you bring it to room temperature first or warm it over medium heat.

Cholula Caliente Wing Sauce Wings

These Cholula Caliente wing sauce wings are something special. Traditional Buffalo wing sauce needed a south-of-the-border twist, and this is it. Nicely spicy, it has a great combination of peppers that make for one of the best tasting sauces I’ve had. If you’re a fan of Cholula’s hot sauce, you’ll be an even bigger fan of this wing sauce.

Cholula Caliente Wings

A Great Tasting Sauce

It’d be an understatement to say I’m a big lover of Cholula’s Caliente wing sauce. Ditto their other wing sauce that I’ve tried, Cholula Mexicali. And like any Cholula sauce, wing or hot, it’s good on just about anything. Like nachos. Or tacos. You name it. I don’t use it sparingly, I load up and then I add some more. No such thing as too much of this sauce.

And, according to my wife, the bottle is pretty.

Remember that if you have to refrigerate your open bottle of wing sauce to let it sit out on the counter for at least 30 minutes before using. You don’t want to ‘shock’ hot, just-cooked wings with a cold sauce.

Lillie’s Q White Wing Sauce Wings

The more and more Lillie’s Q white wing sauce I eat, the more I love it. That’s not to say it’s growing on me. I loved it right out of the bottle the first time. It’s just that I keep finding it to be even more enjoyable on each and every batch of wings that I make. It’s got a great spice level. A bit of a kick. Enough to make my lips tingle. It has a slight vinegar flavor, like any Alabama white sauce-like sauce. But it’s not overpowering. It’s creamy, mayonnaise-like, but it doesn’t taste like mayonnaise. It’s different and it’s great!

Lillie's Q White Wings

Thick And Ready To Do The Job

Lillie’s Q white wing sauce is thick. It’s a bit hard to get it out of the glass (yes! glass! Thank you!) bottle. Give it a good shake before using it. And I don’t mean one of those ‘shake-shake-done’ things. Shake it like you mean it. And don’t be shy with it. It kind of ‘melts’ as you put it on your wings. If you go super light you might not see it. Not that it won’t be there. You’ll get the heat.

Wing-Time Thai Chili Buffalo Wing Sauce Wings

I, like a lot of people, am a big fan of the Buffalo wing sauces from Wing-Time. They’re creamy, delicious, and come in different heat levels so they’re great for anyone and any occasion. So I was excited when I came across the Wing-Time Thai Chili Buffalo wing sauce in the grocery store. But, honestly, the first taste killed that excitement pretty quick. For a Buffalo sauce, this is another great sauce. But I got no Thai Chili flavor at all. I tried, too. I even asked others to taste it. Nothing. What happened? I don’t know. So, good Buffalo sauce, but not a Thai Chili sauce in my opinion.

Wing-Time Thai Chili Buffalo Wings

I’m Kinda Sad. Actually, I Am Sad.

I couldn’t find any contact info for Wing-Time online. Their website is gone. Their Facebook page is inactive. Fortunately, though, the manufacturer of their sauces, Allied Old English, is still around (but didn’t respond to a DM on FB). Boy, I sure hope this means that their sauces will still be available online and in stores. I also hope that my experience with the Wing-Time Thai Chili Buffalo wing sauce was a fluke! Because I sure do love their other sauces. Maybe my bottle got mis-labelled!

Aji Amarillo Wings

Aji amarillo is an orange-colored pepper from Peru. I haven’t been able to find it in the US in pepper-form, but you can find a paste made from pureed aji peppers in some foreign food markets. Aji amarillo rates between 35,000 and 50,000 on the Scoville scale, meaning it’s about as hot as Tabasco sauce. It has a nice fruity flavor that reminds me a bit of habanero, but without the scorching heat. I encountered aji amarillo often in dishes throughout Peru when I lived there long, long ago.

Aji Amarillo Wings

Aji pepper flavor

Since I love chicken wings, I decided to cook up a batch and instead of saucing them with just a traditional Buffalo sauce, I made a variation that adds aji amarillo paste. The end result was just a bit spicy, with a fantastic fruity pepper flavor.

Kick it up!

These were fantastic wings, and definitely a nice twist on the usual. If you like your wings to be a bit spicier, just add more of the aji amarillo paste. Since it’s not overwhelmingly hot you don’t have to worry about a-little-goes-a-long-ways: you can add quite a bit and still get great flavor without burning the roof of your mouth.

Melinda’s Creamy Style Habanero Wing Sauce Wings

Heat and flavor need not be separate things. Melinda’s Creamy Style Habanero wing sauce wings bring that kick and then some, and all with some delicious pepper taste to boot. Cayenne and habaneros are combined to make this a sauce you won’t soon forget. I consider these to be Buffalo wings on steroids. The bottle says the spice level is 3 out of 5. I was thinking they might be pretty close to a 4….

Legend Larry’s Garlic Parmesan Wing Sauce Wings

There are a good number of garlic Parmesan wing sauces on the market. I knew that the one from Legend Larry’s would stand above the crowd. All of their wing sauces do. This sauce is just the right consistency. With just the right balance of garlic and Parmesan, with a hint of black pepper. It’s herbaceous, not wimpy.

Legend Larry's Garlic Parmesan Wings

Oh. So. Good. A Wonderful Wing Sauce

Legend Larry’s garlic Parmesan wing sauce hit the spot on my wings. But with that first bite I knew it’d also be great on more. I could definitely see using it on a salad as dressing. Or on pasta. Or as a chicken marinade. It’s got the right flavor and can be used on a lot of dishes, but it really shines the best on wings!

Remember that if you have to refrigerate your open bottle of wing sauce to let it sit out on the counter for at least 30 minutes before using. You don’t want to ‘shock’ hot, just-cooked wings with a cold sauce.
